A simple utility to generate pre-signed URLs for uploading files to AWS S3 buckets.
A versatile utility for generating pre-signed URLs facilitating file uploads to AWS S3 buckets.
npm install get-s3-signed-url
Define configuration for file upload:
const config = {
BUCKET_NAME: 'BUCKET_NAME',
REGION: 'REGION',
acl: 'public-read',
fileName: 'Product-image',
contentType: 'contentType',
type: 'images',
}
Generate pre-signed URL:
const { generateSignedUploadUrl } = require('get-s3-signed-url');
// Hit the function with the config as a parameter to get the signed URL
generateSignedUploadUrl(config)
.then(url => {
console.log('Pre-signed URL:', url);
// Hit the signed URL with the PUT method and the media you want to upload
// After a successful response, your media will be stored in the S3 bucket
})
.catch(error => {
console.error('Error:', error);
});
Access the stored media with the same signed URL using the extractURLTillPNG function:
function extractURLTillPNG(url) {
const pngIndex =
url.indexOf(".jpg") !== -1 ? url.indexOf(".jpg") : url.indexOf(".png");
if (pngIndex !== -1) {
return url.substring(0, pngIndex + 4); // +4 to include the .png extension
}
return null; // Return null if the .png extension is not found in the URL
}
